Robert Gargrave of Tankersley, Esq.

Dates seem off - the Esquire must be later?

Visitations are so far not illuminating about wives.

Did he marry Elizabeth Saville as her 3rd or 4th husband, or her daughter Lady Elizabeth Conyers as her 2nd?

To me, a step father is more likely in this role than a brother in law:

On the other hand, it “appears” from this IPM that Robert Gargrave was the widow Conyers new husband?
